Closing a Wave Version C032 3M Rivas 2017-04 Hanns-Georg Rybak hgrybak@mmm.com

What to do with open tasks? 3M Preset: keep the task open Missing cartons usually follow the next day and find the open task. Keep it open to get this automatically finalized. Customer might require to get a partial delivery Use „Partial Delivery“ to close the task, receive the packing lists and the Transport Summary Sheet. Missing cartons will not follow Use „Partial Delivery“ to close the task, receive the packing lists and the Transport Sheet. For customer deliveries: After 2 days latest, close an open task. If the carton appears later, it will create a new task For replenishments: close the task latest next day

Why and when closing a wave Closing the wave finishes the workload of the wave Records of the scanned SSCCs are removed from the PDAs For tasks missing cartons, decide whether to keep open or close Messages to SIS and your TMS will be sent latest when closing the wave for still open tasks where all cartons are finished (e.g. all your inbound loose carton tasks). When All cartons and pallets of a wave have been scanned All tasks have been finished, besides those, which shall stay open Only keep tasks open when cartons will follow the next day (Split Shipments)

Check the wave status: /Operation/Reconstruction Status

Which case is present Case „Dark grey“ – FINE Task is closed, nothing more to do Case „Blue“ – ALMOST FINE Task has reconstructed and perhaps some finished cartons Finalise the task using PDA (does not appear to loose carton tasks) If impossible to scan, then use „Finish local shipments“ Case „Green“ – THIS IS AN OPERATIONAL ERROR OF THE HUB All cartons at least presorted, some may be even reconstructed (does not appear to loose carton tasks) You need to progress the task as much as possible with the PDA If this is a packed pallet and you cannot access the „presorted“ cartons any more, then use „Finish local shipments“ to progress the task. Case „Orange“ – THIS IS AN OPERATIONAL ERROR OF SHIPPING OPERATION OR HUB Some items still missing (not processed), others have been worked on (presorted/reconstructed/finished) Then check which case you have then Case „Light Grey“– THIS IS AN OPERATIONAL ERROR OF THE SHIPPING OPERATION Entirely missing. Keep task open, leave it as it is

HOWTO: check whether carton SSCC has been reconstructed to a pallet Get the SSCC: Either type it or for instance open Planning, search the task (by name), open task, open shipment, see all SSCCs: search for last 4 digits. Double click on SSCC, hit „Ctrl C“ Go to „SSCC Search“, Ctrl V in SSCC field… then hit „Search“ Parent SSCC shows the pallet to the carton
